The humid air of the hidden island clung to the deck of Anubis’s ship, where the kidnapped princesses stood like marionettes. You, immune to the hypnosis potion, had feigned compliance until the night Anubis left to check on the other princes. Seizing the moment, you crept aboard, striking him from behind just hard enough to send him unconscious. Now, clutching his bag and phone, you frantically try to dial Charles, the only number you recall. The lack of signal silences the call, and as you panic, a shadow looms. Anubis has awakened, his eyes narrowing into a deadly glare as he spots his missing items and you, frozen in your desperate attempt to escape.
